Football on Off the Ball. There will inevitably have to be a change this summer.
If they win the league, that will have to come tactically from him. If they don't win the league, I suspect it might well come with a change of manager at some point. Join in the obsession. Subscribe now at offtheball.com forward slash join. Off the Ball Daily.
Folks, hello and welcome to tonight's Late Night League of Ireland with myself, Shane Keegan, and my co-host, Barry Murphy. Barry, how are you keeping?
Shane, not too bad.
Can you hear me okay? We can, we can. You're under pressure. You're just after bailing out of Tala Stadium to jump straight on. There's just a delay. Fair play to you.
just coming out with the masses home happy fans coming out of the stadium although it took a while to get over the line in the end Waterford put up a decent fight in the second half
Yeah, sounds like it, sounds like it. Barry, I'll fly down through the results first just to get us going and then we'll start to jump on with our callers and get your own opinion. So to run through things, the eventful night yet again in the League of Ireland, that's for sure. Premier Division results, draw it out with a massive win at home to Sligo Rovers and two teams down to the bottom end of things.
What are the latest results in the League of Ireland?
Dundalk beaten at home 2-1 by Shelburne. Again, big, big win for Shelbs. Mayhem up at Amon DC Park where Galway United got what I think was a 95th minute equaliser against St Patrick's Athletic to make it 2-2. Bohemians and Derry which was the game on Virgin, the one I was watching myself, a one-all draw between Bowes and Derry. As we've just said, Barry's on his way out of Talla where he's just seen Shamrock Grovers beating Watford United by one goal to nil. In the first division we had a stalemate 0-0 at Lone Town and Kerry 2-2 with Bray Wanderers at home to Treaty United. The day we thought we mightn't see a defeat in the first division for Cork City 0, Cote Ramblers 1. Massive, massive result for Cote Ramblers.
UCD 2 Longford 0, a UCD team that are trucking along superbly and Wexford with a 2-0 win, the Mikey Rowe showing up for the first time down at Wexford with a 2-0 win over Finn Harps. So very, very eventful, that's for sure. Barry, I suppose we'll jump in with yourself first. I looked at this one and I thought there might be a bit of a tanking on the way for Watford. But they obviously put up a decent account of themselves. Well, look, Stephen Bradley would obviously be happy. He's picked up the three points. But have they had better performances?
I think we've seen this performance the last couple of weeks against the bottom half teams. I think, Shane, it looked like Rovers were going to run away with it. Graham Burke scores. They look fairly comfortable, Waterford, up until the 20-minute mark, playing with a three-centre half, playing a five at the back. long John Mann and Hayden Kahn playing the three centre-halves they looked comfortable enough and then Sean McGrath was just go up a gear score the goal through Graham Burke and it looks like it's going to be four or five and I just thought Waterford looked all over the place they were on the ropes for the next five or ten minutes the line was incohesive they weren't talking to each other balls in behind last-ditch tackles and
It just looked like Roberts were really going to go up through the gears and finish them off. And then, like we've seen over the last couple of weeks, they just haven't been able to do it, haven't killed teams off. And then you come into the latter stages of the games and suddenly Waterford throw everything at them, have a couple of chances. McGinty's got to make a few saves. Porrick Ammon probably had the best two chances of the game, fluffed his lines very un-Porrick Ammon-like. And you think Waterford might nick something like Dundalk did in the latter stages a couple of weeks ago. And Roberts just about get over the line and go back to the summer of the league.
Yeah, yeah. I was keeping an eye on things. Look, I saw the changes as well.
